Get a bagger to show you care.

Be careful you don't dump her off the back, easy to do without a sissy bar.

But she will want a comfortable seat with speakers and armrests, floorboards, windshield for the wind and rain, bags for the jackets, camera's brushes, etc, etc...

Next it will be time to trade the bike in for a minivan...

That looks like a nice seat and I love the fact that it's a P-Pad and not a full 2seater. Any other pics of the seat on your bike?
Thanks

Anybody have pics of the Harley Pillion Pad? I just got a quote from the local dealer and it seems fair so I might pic it up.
Thanks

Went with a 1200 low HD seat on my 2010 Nightster. Works well looks good. Takes only a minute to swap out solo seat. Also detachable backrest,so I don't dump the Old Lady? Post pics when I figure out how..

How far back does the tripper seat go? Does it go as far back on the fender as the stock seat does?
Im considering getting the tripper myself but wondering if a phantom pad will fit with it? Ive got a great one w/ the gel insert for my g/f but it doesnt fit w/ the stock seat as it's too far back on the fender.
